Velocity Amateur Cycle Race Set to Cause Traffic Disruptions in Berlin This Sunday

The Velocity amateur cycle race is taking place this Sunday in Berlin. From 7 am driving in the city of Berlin and the southwestern districts will therefore be difficult.

Several children’s races took place there on Saturday.

The race has now become a tradition, with the first Velothon taking place in 2008. In 2019 the race was canceled due to license disputes, then because of Corona. Since 2022 it has been renamed “Velocity”.

Then start on Sunday from 8 a.m. the races over two distances. The 60-kilometer lap stays in Berlin, the 100-kilometer extension leads to Ludwigsfelde. Around 6,000 amateur athletes will compete, significantly fewer than at the Velothon with more than 10,000. As always, there is an appeal to switch to the subway and S-Bahn. Because drivers can take the course only cross in a few places:
